What if the house we are building or fixing up and spending so much time on is going to burn someday anyway?
What if there is a cheaper vacation option to pursue, and we could pass the savings along to help those struggling in the Rohinga refugee camps in Bangladesh? What if my neighbor dies without Christ this week and I realize I've spent five years planting flowers but never shared the Gospel with her? What if warming the bench at church was not all God intended for the follower of Christ? What if saving for retirement is a man-made construct that never shows up in the teachings of Jesus? What would happen if I truly believed in the power of prayer? And what if I spent more time in prayer than on my phone? What if every Christ-follower in the USA would ask God to give him/her a friend from a different ethnic and/or socio-economic background this year, and then walk through God's open doors for personal growth and change? What if, for every believer in Jesus in the USA, denominational affiliation became secondary to radical allegiance to the Life and Teachings of King Jesus? May our Father in heaven draw your heart and spirit to His heart, in deeper sanctification and holiness. Rich
